Describe the Helios Issue

Whenever I use any monitor configuration generated by Helios my F10 map in DCS is offset to the left. That is both the map itself and where I click, but not where the mouse pointer is actually pointing at.
Whenever I switch back the normal configurations it works again

Steps to Reproduce the problem

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Generate Monitor Setup
2. Select it in DCS
3. Start a game and open the map

Expected behavior

The map to not be offset

Screenshots

Please complete the following information:

• Helios Version [eg 1.6.6120.2]
• DCS Version [e.g. Open Beta 2.9.12..5336]

The problem happened while using

(place an 'x' between the square brackets for all that apply)

• Profile Editor
• Control Center
• Keypress Receiver
• Something else (Inside DCS)

Additional context

Been having this Issue on two different installs on Windows. Only realized it is caused by Helios when I reinstalled it on a fresh windows install.

I just encountered this issue as well. A black bar along one side of the F10 map, and when using the ruler tool it is offset from where you actually click on the screen. All my Helios output, game output and menus work fine except for the F10. Strangely, the Alt-Click method of generating a coordinate window still generates correct map coordinates that I was able to fly to!

I actually "Solved" it by aligning all monitors in Windows in a single Row. Not a T shape.
maybe this will help you

My monitors ARE all in one row though. Hmm... I'll do some experimenting.

[Keebler750]

Making my main DCS 3D viewport start on my main monitor at 0,0 and then any other monitors/viewports to the right solved this for me. Prior, I had my MPD viewports on a smaller monitor starting at 0,0 and then the DCS monitor to the right. They were all in a row, but it affected the F10 map. With that solved, I have to figure out controls indicators and kneeboard not appearing properly....

Converting to a Discussion as no evidence that this is a Helios problem.
